Movies and TV shows often portray Bluetooth headset-wearing people as kind of braggarts or douches, walking around, being constantly “on the phone” and talking. Even in real life, these headpieces aren’t exactly comfortable and convenient, since they’re still not totally wireless. But the newest earbuds from Earin are probably the smallest in the world and are totally wire-free.

Coming after a few delays -- the Pressy team has begun shipping the '"almighty Android button" to Kickstarter backers. Details were shared in a recent update on the Kickstarter page, and include how the team expects "the majority of packages" to arrive somewhere between 5 and 14 days. Of course, there was also a mention about how some may take longer.

We've seen wireless tags for locating items, or your smartphone, before, like Nokia's Treasure Tag or HTC's Fetch Tag. iFind, however, is a class above the rest, because without a battery, this thing, like that iconic Energizer rabbit, will just keep on going and going and going and going.

Android on PCs, that's definitely been thought of and done before, if the number of Android-powered all-in-one's and laptops of late is any indication. However, Mobile Media Ventures, the people behind iConsole.tv have an even more ambitious goal: to run Android side by side Windows on any PC of your choice.

Have you ever had that moment when you wanted to show your friends this brand new TV show but your Android phone’s small screen wasn’t enough to capture how awesome it is? Well the folks over at Dos Owls, a start-up focused on creating portable visual display products, think they have the solution as they are launching their first product, the ODIN, which they claim is the first mobile device “focused on social interaction.”

We hadn't heard much from the Pressy team since back in mid-April. That last status update seemed to be positive, and was reporting how shipments were expected to begin later in the month. To clarify here, the folks at Pressy had expected to begin shipping the "almighty Android button" towards the end of April. Well, April came and went without any reports of shipments.

We've seen plenty about Google Glass lately, and one of the features of the Google wearable is the ability to quickly capture images and video from your point of view. There is plenty more going on with Glass, however a new Kickstarter project appears aimed at those who are only looking for image (and video) capture. The project is the LifeLogger and the funding campaign has just gotten underway.

If you've ever wished your smartphone or tablet could charge faster when connected via a computer or the car, then wish no more. For the right pledge, you can get your hands on the DouBBleTime, a USB charging cable that promises to do just that.

If you’ve got friends using iPhones, you may have seen them sport some add-on lenses for their sharp shooter. There are a lot of aftermarket lenses for the iPhone; it sells well, and has a single form factor. Android users haven’t been so lucky, but popular Kickstarter team Lensbaby is changing that.

There may be some good news for those who backed the Pressy Kickstarter project. According to the latest update -- shipments are expected to begin later this month. Specifically, the Pressy team said they are hopeful deliveries will begin on April 28th. Assuming that timeline holds then backers should begin receiving the gadget in May.
